Focusing on university students, this study examines how teacher-student relationships and academic climate impact academic motivation. It highlights the growing issue of career anxiety among students and its effects on their motivation. The research identifies differences in these factors based on students' fields of study and explores the interplay between academic climate, teacher-student relationships, and motivation. Results indicate that both teacher-student relationships and academic climate are significant predictors of motivation, with career anxiety moderating these relationships.

Exploring the similarities between Portuguese and Romanian, this study focuses on the systems of forms of address within these two Romance languages, particularly their phonetic commonalities.

By analyzing the issues and proposing potential solutions, the work aims to deepen the understanding of language dynamics at the intersection of culture and translation.

Focusing on the linguistic distinctions between Spanish and Portuguese, this analysis explores their historical and geographical ties as Romance languages. It highlights their remarkable similarities during medieval times, particularly around the 13th century, when differences were minimal. The paper examines how these languages have evolved separately over time while still retaining evident similarities at various linguistic levels.

The house looked right, felt right to Dr Louis Creed.Rambling, old, unsmart and comfortable. A place where the family could settle; the children grow and play and explore.

Just a carefully cleared path up into the woods where generations of local children have processed with the solemn innocence of the young, taking with them their dear departed pets for burial.
